Consequence of Sound - Marten Carlson
Hunter Gatherer is by no means perfect, but it leaves an impression that will linger for days to come, as images of Ashley and Jeremy continue to haunt the mind. Hunter Gatherer is that rare film that sneaks around the corner and smashes headlong into the viewer.

Variety - Justin Chang
Deliberately steering clear of the usual gangland drugs-and-violence cliches, Josh Locy’s writing-directing debut features a welcome starring role for Andre Royo (“The Wire”), whose performance as a wily hustler trying to stay one step ahead of possible ruin sets the tone for this odd, occasionally mystifying but undeniably singular and imaginative work.

The New York Times - Jeannette Catsoulis
This amiable look at life on the margins gradually accumulates a melancholy that punctures the drollness.

RogerEbert.com - Matt Zoller Seitz
Hunter Gatherer doesn't look or feel like many movies being made right now.

IndieWire - David Ehrlich
Even if Locy doesn’t have a particularly great story to tell about this community, Hunter Gatherer warmly affirms the obvious fact that there are an infinite number of great stories to be told there. These days, some people could use the reminder.
